How many secrets does this man have?
"it is good!"
Bai Qiu slammed his hand on the table, and violent lightning exploded on his body.
"The Himejima family!!"
He gritted his teeth and uttered the name, his overwhelming hatred no longer able to be suppressed.
"Back then, I spared them from exterminating them because of Zhu Nai! Now, they'd better hand over Zhu Li's soul intact!"
"Otherwise, I, Baiqiu, will surely grind them to dust!"
This Lei Guangzhi cadre finally revealed his most ferocious side.
Zhou Ye simply handed the hairpin gently to Himejima Akeno.
"Zhu Nai, keep this safe."
"Soon, you will be able to put it back on your mother's head yourself."
Chapter 266: Plot Accelerates, Kyoto
My trip to Kyoto is already imminent.
Before that, Zhou Ye took Himejima Akeno and returned to the Gremory family's mansion.
There are some things I need to discuss with Rias and her lovable parents first.
When Zhou Ye and Himejima Akeno revealed their plan to revive their mother, Himejima Akari, the entire living room fell into an eerie silence.
Beneath Rias's red hair, her beautiful blue-green eyes widened in shock, her small mouth slightly agape, as if she had completely lost her composure.
The cigar in Geotix's hand fell directly onto the expensive carpet, burning a small, blackened hole, but he was completely unaware of it.
Only Vinilana, the Gremory mistress with her peculiar thought process, after a brief moment of astonishment, suddenly had her beautiful eyes flash with a brightness comparable to searchlights.
"Resurrecting my mother-in-law?" She grabbed Himejima Akeno's hand, her face filled with excitement and joy. "Oh my! This is wonderful news! Akeno-chan, you're going to have a mother soon!"
"Mom! Is this the time to talk about this?!" Rias finally snapped out of her daze. She felt her worldview had been shattered once again by Zhou Ye. "Resurrecting the dead... Ye, is... is this really possible?"
No wonder she was shocked.
In the demonic system, death is the end.
The soul enters a cycle or is completely annihilated. Reversing this law of life and death is a realm that even the Demon King cannot easily reach (one can only say that the person is incompetent).
"Father-in-law, what do you think?" Zhou Ye did not answer Rias directly, but instead threw the question to his other father-in-law, who was still in a petrified state.
“I…” Geoticus picked up his cigar, opened his mouth, his expression extremely complicated. “Son-in-law, this is no child’s play. Reviving Miss Zhu Li involves far too many consequences. Moreover, what about the Himejima family…”
His concerns are justified.
Himejima Akari's death was a tragic product of the conflict between fallen angels and human exorcist families.
Forcibly reviving it now will inevitably reignite this powder keg.
"What are you afraid of!" Vinilana slammed her hand on the table, exuding an imposing aura. "Back when Himejima Akari died, it would be strange if the Japanese pantheon hadn't intervened behind the scenes. Those mere human exorcists, if they dare to utter a sound, we'll kill them! They're ignorant fools! My son-in-law wants to resurrect his mother-in-law, it's only natural! Who dares to object?"
Geoticus: "..."
He chose to keep quiet.
In this family, his wife's decisions are basically the final verdict.
“I support you, Ye.” Rias walked to Zhou Ye’s side and firmly grasped his hand. “Kuno is my best friend, my queen, her mother, and also my family. Whatever you need, the Kiri family will support you with all its might.”
The girl's words were resolute.
Zhou Ye looked at her, then at Himejima Akeno beside him, whose eyes were red and whose face was full of emotion, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
But at that moment, he keenly caught a fleeting glimpse of melancholy on Rias's face.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Ye asked.
Rias shook her head, then looked up again, her beautiful eyes filled with an unprecedented seriousness.
"Ye, I want to become stronger."
Her words stunned everyone present.
“In the Odin incident, and before that Loki incident… I realized I’m too weak.” Rias clenched her fists slightly. “I don’t want to be able to do anything but watch your back every time. I don’t want to be your weakness, I don’t want to be a burden that requires your protection!”
These words were like a pebble thrown into a lake, instantly creating ripples.
“Rias is right!” Saeko Busujima gripped her sword hilt, her fighting spirit soaring. “Boss, fighting is my pleasure, but it would be too boring to just watch from the sidelines!”
"For the prosperity of the Gremory family, and also to be able to help Ye, I must work hard." Himejima Akeno wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, revealing her signature cunning smile.
Nami tossed her long orange hair, her golden eyes gleaming with shrewdness: "Strength is capital. If you want to make more money, you need a strong enough fist. Boss, count me in."
Gil gave Shiwa Kasumigaoka, Miko Yotsuya, and even the usually laid-back Shizuka Marikawa and Rika Minami an approving look.
Strengthen our capabilities and enhance our combat effectiveness.
After a series of events, this idea had become the most urgent desire in the hearts of all the women.
Looking at the beautiful women surrounding him, Zhou Ye realized they were no longer just pretty vases; within each of them burned a flame called "becoming stronger."
"it is good."
Zhou Ye smiled.
“I have a good place that can meet your requirements.”
He snapped his fingers, and a strange, pure white door, radiating spatial fluctuations, appeared out of thin air in the center of the living room.
"The House of Time and Spirit".
"Go in and cultivate, squeeze out all your potential."
……
When everyone emerged from that pure white space once again, Kuoh Academy had already begun a new semester.
The outside world changed in the blink of an eye, but the auras of Rias, Akeno, and others underwent a dramatic transformation.
The magic and aura of each person were solidified many times over.
The first major event of the new semester is the school trip to Kyoto.
On the Shinkansen to Kyoto, Zhou Ye was accompanied not only by his family but also by two uninvited guests.
One was a tall, slender girl with short blue hair and a serious expression, Genovya Quata.
The other is Irina Shito, a lively and cute girl with golden twin tails and an energetic smile on her face.
These two are transfer students sent from Heaven, and also one of the "gift packages" Michael gave to Zhou Ye.
They bear a sacred and absurd mission—to reproduce with Zhou Ye in order to continue the genes of the powerful warrior.
At this moment, Genovya sat upright, his expression as serious as if he were attending a top-level military meeting.
"Your Excellency Zhou Ye, according to my calculations, now is the optimal time to conceive. Shouldn't we immediately find a private space to begin the human continuation plan?"
.......0 0
Her voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for everyone around her to hear clearly.
puff--!
Rias, who was drinking water, suddenly spat it out.
Himejima Akeno's smile froze on her face.
"Xenovia! You idiot! What nonsense are you spouting in public!" Irina Wisteria blushed and desperately tried to cover her companion's mouth.
“I’m not lying!” Xenovia said defiantly, breaking free. “This is Lord Michael’s highest order! It’s for the peace and stability of the world! It’s a very serious matter!”
Zhou Ye rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.
He felt that Michael wasn't giving him a gift; he was sending him two troublemakers.
Amidst this noisy atmosphere, the train arrived in Kyoto.
Under the guise of tourism, the group strolled along the quaint streets, preparing to first visit Fushimi Inari Shrine.
The endless vermilion of the Senbon Torii gates is particularly magnificent under the sunlight.
Just as they were passing through a somewhat secluded torii gate passage, a figure suddenly blocked their way.
She was a little girl who looked only seven or eight years old.
She was dressed in a gorgeous kimono, had dazzling blonde hair, and two fluffy fox ears that stood up alertly on her head.
Behind him, a similarly fluffy golden fox tail swayed uneasily.
The little girl's face showed anger and anxiety beyond her years.
She stretched out her small hand to block his path and called out in a clear but hostile voice:
"stop!"
"You guys smell like my mother!"
"Quickly give me back my mother... Lady Yasaka!"
Chapter 267 The Heroes' Faction Strikes
The taste of mom?
Jiuzhong sniffed hard with her little nose, her golden pupils filled with grievance and anger as she stared intently at Zhou Ye and his group.
"It's you guys!"
"Give me back my mother!"
The innocent voice of a child echoed through the quiet torii gate passage, filled with an undeniable accusation.
Before he finished speaking, the surrounding air suddenly became viscous.
Swish!Swish!Swish!
Dozens of figures emerged from the shadows of the torii gate and from the gaps in the forest, surrounding Zhou Ye and his group.
